Don't Travel To The World Cup...It's Dangerous!
It's hardly surprising, I admit, but the United States government are paranoid. Presumably, it's because they know someone is genuinely out to get them.
Anyway, this paranoia has prompted the US State Department to issue a travel warning to American citizens thinking of travelling to the 2010 World Cup Finals in South Africa.
"There is a heightened risk that extremist groups will conduct terrorist acts within South Africa in the near future," they said.
The State Department statement (as it were) went on to add that there was 'no information on any specific, credible threat during the tournament'; which leads me to ask: why bother scaring the hell out of your native soccer fans in the first place.
